After high alert, grasshopper teams have now entered Maharashtra along with Uttar Pradesh after Madhya Pradesh via Rajasthan. This time they are very large in numbers. Their movement has also increased due to the complete containment due to lockdown. This is the reason why Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Punjab and Haryana have issued an alert, sensing the danger. Along with this, continuous efforts are being made for their disposal. In Uttar Pradesh, instructions have been given to destroy locusts instead of exterminating them. Scientists have warned that if they are not eliminated before the monsoon, then there will be a big risk for the future.
For your information, let us tell you that pesticide spraying is being done continuously in the districts of Madhya Pradesh for control. In this action, swarms of remaining locusts have entered Maharashtra via Uttar Pradesh and Betul via Sidhi-Singrauli. Experts believe that by the onset of monsoon, the locust will be completely controlled. More than 30 districts of Madhya Pradesh are affected by locusts. The central and state government teams are constantly monitoring the locust party that came to Madhya Pradesh via Mandsaur and Neemuch.
On Wednesday, despite the changing direction of the wind, many small grasshopper teams were seen flying towards Jhansi. A small group reached Sonbhadra. According to information received from the Uttar Pradesh State Control Room, locusts attacked in Moth and Garutha tehsil area of Jhansi district but due to lack of numbers, crops suffered less. The control teams drove the locusts with the help of villagers.
